2016 Grow Your Own Lunchbox Challenge

Seven schools took the Mullumbimby Farmers Markets’ second annual Grow Your Own Lunchbox Challenge in 2016, and our judges were blown away by the hard work, creativity and passion for growing and cooking they saw in each and every school.

A special thanks to our judges, Di Wilson, Rod Bruin, David Forrest and Allie Godfrey, and to our wonderful compere, Lissie Turner.

We were proud to give away almost $3000 in prizes which will go toward supporting the participating schools’ kitchen garden programs.

Lunchbox prizes went to:

Best main in lunchbox: Wilsons Creek Public School – Spinach and Herb Quiche

Best snack in lunchbox: Crabbes Creek Public School – Potato and Herb Soup

Best value added item in lunchbox – Shearwater Steiner School – Home made cheese, yoghurt and bread
